This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --Boundary_(ID_IKTvNUZpGFwc2zfENxiiqw) Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT I found my first Ipswich Sparrow of the fall migration this afternoon at Duncan Reef. By coincidence I was there with Ian McLaren this morning who has studied this species considerably. We were discussing said species at the time when I spotted a movement in the rocks. We were not able to locate the bird but it is almost certainly the same one. Yesterday morning at Duncan's Cove I encountered my first Blue-gray Gnatcatcher of the fall. Later In the bushes I heard the noxious complaining of what I thought might have been a Black-billed Cuckoo, but consider this observation a "heads up" only. The darkish Solitary Sandpiper remained at Sandy Cove's beach as of yesterday. Laura and I will look for it this evening when the tide is favourable.
